Manufacturing Processes for Improved Mechanical Performance of Stitched Composites

An example method includes determining, by a computing system, a dry thickness of a fabric preform. The method also includes determining, by the computing system, a debulked thickness of the fabric preform using the dry thickness of the fabric preform. In addition, the method includes determining, b...

Zusammenfassung:An example method includes determining, by a computing system, a dry thickness of a fabric preform. The method also includes determining, by the computing system, a debulked thickness of the fabric preform using the dry thickness of the fabric preform. In addition, the method includes determining, by the computing system, a stitch tension using the dry thickness of the fabric preform and the debulked thickness of the fabric preform. And the method includes causing, by the computing system, a stitching machine to apply a through-the-thickness stitch having the stitch tension to the fabric preform.
